With a static IP address you have to manually configure each workstation, by hand. Doing so can lead to duplication errors because you mistyped an address that is already in use. You might also get the other settings wrong, such as the default gateway, DNS servers, etc.
With DHCP you can more easily manage your address space in a network, and there will be no duplication because DHCP will not give out the same address twice. Other settings can be set once and then distributed to workstations automatically, without error.
Finally, you can save on IP addresses because the workstations will use the addresses only as long as they need them, and then return them to the pool for other to use. With static addressing that will never happen, and you might run out of addresses for your network.
"Many networks use dynamic host control protocol (DHCP) to dynamically assign IP addresses to workstations as needed. This has a number of benefits: It eliminates the need to go from PC to PC setting up static addresses every time you make network infrastructure changes. You only need to set up as many addresses as will be in use at any one time, rather than having limitless address for every possible IP user."
"The main benefit is that if you are on a network, your router will automatically assign an IP address to each network device. That way, if there is a change in the network, you don't need to go to each computer and manually assign a static IP address."
1. cost effective
2. less security risk as the computer is assigned a new IP address whenever you log on
A static IP address, a permanent address on the internet, enables an IP holder to host Web sites and e-mail servers, conduct webcasts, and connect with other Internet users via VPN.
Static IP's are More Costly than dynamic IP address. And Dynamic IP's provided by a pool, so there is no problem about westing of IP address
The function of a dynamic IP address is to host or network interface identification and location.

Dynamic IP addresses are those which can change everytime one tries to connect to the internet whereas, Static IP addresses are those which stay fixed and do not change.
yes ....through your isp
A Dynamic Server serves up IP addresses to computers on a network. The purpose of the dynamic server is to protect the user's identity online. This is why it sends different IP addresses every time the user logs on.
Just make sure you set the clients to "automatically receive IP Addresses".
DHCP - Automatically provides client computers and other TCP/IP-based network devices with IP addresses
Usually, in dynamic addressing models, the host obtains its IP address via DHCP - an administrator sets up a pool of available addresses in an IP range (called a scope) and gives them to clients as they ask for addresses.
A static IP address means it never changes. A dynamic one means that it changes between several different IP addresses. All you need to do is set up several IP addresses and then the software to randomly select one each time you connect to the Internet.
IP addresses are either "dynamic" (shared) or "static" (assigned to you only) connection. A static connection, that is having your very own personal IP address, will most likely cost more per month than the dynamic connection.
They are network services that are always on listening on the network for requests. Example: DNS, DHCP ..... DNS resolves Domain Names to IP addresses. DHCP assigns dynamic IP addresses.
Users do not have a "Domain Name". Users have "IP" addresses. IP addresses can be obtained in a number of ways; Commonly with dynamic languages, such as PHP; Which can be learned at [ http://www.w3schools.com ].
It is a decision made by the ISP whether or not to allow static IP addresses. Most ISPs, in your case the phone company, do have static IP addresses available for an extra charge. Static IP addresses often require a business internet account.
